Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance

Everything we know about Square Enix's latest adventure.

Sometimes, video game publishers have trouble counting to three.

Case in point, Capcom. It took the company six years (and some Alphas, a Championship and Turbo editions in between) to go from Street Fighter II to Street Fighter III. Fans waited so long, that it was impossible for the third installment to live up to the immense hype.

That said, there appears to be a similar situation with Kingdom Hearts, Square Enix's beloved Disney meets RPG series. The first adventure debuted on PlayStation 2 in 2002, and part three is, well, nowhere close to being finished, though we've had plenty of side quests in between, including the oddly titled 358/2 Days on DS.

Here's the bad news. Kingdom Hearts III won't appear for quite some time, but on the positive side, there's Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance for 3DS, a wonderful looking addition that'll make use of the portable's glasses free 3D and introduce new concepts that push the franchise forward.

Square Enix has yet to show us a playable demo, but provided a handful of details, so here's everything we know about this latest game.
